I use asfsm (afterstep filesystem manager) in wharf, which gives a bar graph of all mounted filesystems in a 64x64 pixel tile, and provides a utility to mount and unmount filesystems as well as showing a numerical readout of the percentage of disk space used. Unfortunately, if root is not also running asfsm it will not update the display for non root users (it shows whatever the levels were last time root ran asfsm), and it gives a constant stream of errors on the X-win initiating console for non root users of the type: sh: /usr/tmp/statfs: Permission denied I still like it better than anything else I've seen. asfsm was dropped from afterstep either at version 1.5 or the version before that (??). I salvaged mine. That's all the information I have. -- David [EMAIL PROTECTED]
